Rust for Beginners: Learn Rust in 4 Hours

An introduction to the programming language, Rust, and the contents of the course.

In this lecture, we will talk about the prerequisites for this course.

In this lecture, we talk about the goal of this course and how we plan on learning Rust.

In this lecture, we will talk about the rust package manager, Cargo.

An introduction to the section that will talk about the goals to be achieved in this section. This section is mainly for people with no programming background.

Learn about code blocks and how to create code blocks in Rust.

Functions are blocks of code that have a name. In this lecture, we will talk about the basics of Functions.

Macros are functions that are pre-compiled, meaning they will execute faster. In this lecture, we will introduce the concept of macros.

In this lecture, we will break down and talk about the program that was generated for us by Cargo.

In this lecture, we will talk about the Cargo.toml and Cargo.lock files which are generated for us by Cargo.

In this lecture, we will talk about the target folder that is generated for us by Cargo.

In this lecture, we will talk about data types in programming languages.

In this lecture, we will talk about the correlation between variables and data types.

In this lecture we will make variables and then assign them data types of our choice.

In this lecture, I will show you two ways of using variables in your programs.

In this lecture, we will talk about two new concepts that are interrelated to variables and data types.

Booleans and Logical Operators are a pivotal part of programming. In this lecture, we will learn about them.

In this lecture, we will talk about the different flows of control in programming.

In this lecture, we will learn how to implement conditional flow of control in Rust.

In this lecture we will talk about initializing variables using conditional expressions.

In this lecture, we will talk about loops and how to write them.

In this lecture, we will talk about escaping infinite loops in an elegant way.

In this lecture, we go in-depth in understanding functions in Rust.

In this lecture, we talk about creating custom data types using structures.

In this lecture, we will talk about the Rust Standard library and using the String Module which is part of the Rust Standard Library.

In this lecture, we will use the rust standard library to read input from the user.

A quick tip on importing modules into your programs.

In this lecture, we will start the section by setting up our project and defining our project in simple steps.

In this lecture, we will work on reading the input from the user that is needed for our calculator to function.

In this lecture, we will actually perform the operations depending on user input.

In this lecture, we will fine-tune our application and work on improving the code.

A quick summary of our simple calculator application.

With this lecture, we start learning about one of the most important concepts in Rust programming, Ownership.

In this lecture, we talk about the static allocation of memory using Stack.

In this lecture, we will talk about scope and dynamic allocation using heap.

In this lecture, we start talking about the rules of ownership that help us manage memory in Rust.

In this lecture, we will talk about two advanced Memory Management techniques, Shallow copying, and Deep copying.

In this lecture, we will talk about ownership in context to functions.
